Sometimes. Other times you've got a sociopath, psychopath or - worst of all - a flaming narcissist on your hands.

For all that it is in truth far more terrifying, I freely admit that expressions like "Oh, in the name of False Vacuum Decay" just doesn't land the same. It's s shame, really. Modern scientific curses like "may all your Li-Ion batteries grow centimeter long dendrites in seconds" are much more fearsome than they immediately appear.
I mean, "may your tap water turn to dioxygen difluoride while you're taking a shower" would make even Satan go, "okay, stop, just... Jesus, stop."
Yeah, sure. What could possibly go wrong?
...That's genius. Thanks!
That's rough, buddy. Sounds like you could do with a bit a alone time. Just you, a tent, basic survival gear and... Adam Driver and Scarlett Johansson arguing.
Ah, tranquility.
I think you're myopically focusing on my humorous hyperbole and missing my point. Purely scientifically speaking you might well be able to subsist on SCoP, casein powder in water, a dry pack of chow mein noodles and a daily multi-vitamin pill and be perfectly fine. Hell, you can probably scientifically design some sort of nutritionally perfect human kibble that the peons can wash down with Real Water (tm), but is that desirable?
Now if you will excuse me, I have a sourdough bread to shove in the oven.
Normally I wouldn't try to predict whether Trump's actions and words will align, but this one feels like it's likely to actually happen. It's like that old Ren & Stimpy quote: "If you wanna be a genius, it's easy: Just say everything sucks, and that way you'll never be wrong."
That squares with him playing the role of the ultimate illegal immigrant. /s
At this point, we're looking at a Grok-controlled T-800 busting down my door to berate me for 'liking my brown neighbors too much' or telling me I should father more 'high-testosterone male alpha babies (but only if they're whiter than newly bleached sheets)', whereupon it'll throw an entirely unnecessary roman salute and try to leave the premises, but fail by walking into the wall near the door repeatedly, and get stuck in a infinite loop.
Somehow, I find myself... Unintimidated.
I don't... What? I've literally lost track of what reality is on this planet at this point. Fuck it, we ball.
Given that I'm currently enjoying CP2077 on a 1080/i5, quite good.
Look, does it really matter whether they do or not? If a company is morally bankrupt enough to conduct business like this in the first place, it's a certainty they'll just find some other novel way to be flaming assholes.
If you don't want to get cheated, stop doing business with thieves and liars.
